Safari freezes when going "back" via mouse wipe

Hi,
have a problem with my mac mini and OS X 10.9.
When I want to go back to a last visited page by wiping on the mouse to the left, the safari tag freezes. Any ideas?
Thanks,
Bernd.

Safari. When going back on a web page, why does that page start at top?

Hi, new to Apple and macbooks etc, but bought a new Macbook Pro and very happy I am with it too.
However, one thing with Safari bothers me. When I am on eBay for instance and have scrolled halfway down a page, I then click a link that takes me to whatever, within the same tab. When I then want to return to the previous page, at the same point that i left it, i.e halfway down the page, when I do this it always opens at the top of the page and I have to scroll down again and find the place I was before.
Hope this makes sense and someone can answer why this happens or offer a solution to stop it from happening. (pretty sure it doesn't happen in firefox but I don't really use that now.)
Oh, mountain lion 10.8.3 and safari 6.0.3

Do you mean opening a link to one of your pages or opening an external link?
Can you go back properly if you open the tab history via the right-click context menu or by holding down the left mouse button on the Back button?
You may need to reload your web page(s) and bypass the cache if you've made changes to files.
*Press and hold Shift and left-click the Reload button.
*Press "Ctrl + F5" or press "Ctrl + Shift + R" (Windows,Linux)
*Press "Cmd + Shift + R" (MAC)

Why does safari reload when going back?

This is something that is really wrong, it should simply load from the cache. Even for a dynamic php file, unless it was loaded from a form.
Is there a way to change that?
Thanks

Hi,
Does this happens on a particular website you visit ... or does this happens on ALL websites you visit?
When this happens that a website automatically reloads than this is a build-in script on the website you visit. Than there is nothing you can do about is.

App crashing when going back to previous view

I've got my app. which has several views. in my 3rd view, i have a list of questions with yes/no answers the answers to which I'm saving to a plist. it was working all good. but then i added a first view with a table which has 4 options, clicking on either of these rows go to the same view but each of them change the value of the variable in my singleton class, which then decides which questions are added to the 3rd view. so this helps me to jus have one view but the variable controls the different questions. Now my problem is that if i change something in my 3rd view, for eg, i choose yes/no , then when i am going back to the main viw , my app crashes. I am not sure why this happens.How does it work anyway-the inherent back button on the navigation bar? im guessing it calls the viewdidload function for the first/second view when going back to them from the first view, i dont undrstand why it crashes, coz the viewdidloads of these views seem okay to me.
thanks

write the piece of code causing the crash or paste the output on the console to get to know what actually cause your application to be crashed.

TS2551 Iphoto freezes when going in preferences

since one day my Iphoto 09 freezes when going in preferences. Can anyone help?

Try this: launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and create a new, test library. Import some photos and check to see if the same problem persists. If it doesn't then it's your current library that's the culprit.
If that's the case make a temporary, backup copy (select the library and type Command+D) and apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
Fix #1
Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
Since only one option can be run at a time start with Option #1, followed by #3 and then #4 as needed.
Fix #2
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
Click on the Create button.
Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

Safari freezes when attempting to go back using the wipe function of the magic mouse.

Whenever I wipe a little bit to the side on my magic mous the opened tab starts freezing when attempting to go back.
Restart didn't help and there was no system error Message.
Thank you for supporting!
By the way, I'm running Maverick already.

From the Safari menu bar, select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data
and confirm. Test.

Why does safari reload page from beginning when going back in history

This behavior in safari is driving me nuts, i'm using mountain lion 10.8.1 and everytime i swipe two fingers to the left after having left a page to checksomething, safari goes back to the page and starts me in a different place (usually very beginning) than where i was when i navigated away from the page. i mean what the ****? this gets very infuriating pretty quickly, especially on really long pages that i now have to navigate to the same section i was when i navigated away from the page.
example, i was reading about the samsung apple verdict on cnet, and i was reading i dont know, the 30th or so comment in:
http://news.cnet.com/8301-13579_3-57500273-37/apple-v-samsung-the-infringing-dev ice-scorecard/
I then navigated away from the page to look for a tangent the comments made me think of, and when i swiped two fingers to the left, low and behold, i am now at the top of the page and have to figure out what comment i was up to.. what.. the.. heck man?? am i doing something wrong? is there a way to 'fix' this behavior?
I remember on snow leopard i could go back and forth between pages w/o the page having to reload/leave me at the top..
another example is newegg.com, i was looking at monitors and playing with the differnet choices when clicking 'more choices':
http://www.newegg.com/Store/SubCategory.aspx?SubCategory=20&name=LCD-Monitors
scroll down to where it says options on the left pane, the page displays drop downs, i select a few, click on Search, and when i two-finger swipe to the left to get back, the drop downs are now gone!! that was the "last state" of the page, so why does the page have to get entirely reloaded?? It SHOULD still be in my cache and viewable in the exact same way as when i left the page..
someone please help!

Jesus H Christ this is still driving me up the wall, i can't believe everyone is just accepting this. Isn't there a way to fix this? Can we at least have an option to turn this OFF?? Reloading a page everytime i go back is such a waste of time/bandwidth/my nerves when i am in the middle of a page

Why does Safari freeze when the cursor hovers across "Bookmarks"?

Safari v 4.1
Hi,
When I move the cursor over "Bookmarks" in the menu at the very top of the window, Safari freezes for about 5 minutes. It can also freeze when the cursor is simply passing under the "Bookmarks". When I'm moving the cursor horizontally across the entire screen, I have to keep the cursor well below the top menu bar to avoid freezing Safari. Otherwise Safari is working OK. I often Force Quit" Safari when this happens, but if I wait, it will unfreeze.
This is all about hovering, not clicking.
Any suggestions as to why this is happening and how to fix it.
Thanks, Rafael

Hi Carolyn.
First, about resetting. I've never done it before, and I recall hearing—but have no direct experience—that it practically wipes the slate clean. I've built a very sophisticated Bookmarks Bar and Bookmarks Menu, and because I'm a researcher, I never erase history. When I started using Safari a long time ago, I was told by Apple to regularly erase history. Then a couple of years ago I was told by someone I trust that it's OK to keep it.
I regularly empty Cache and remove cookies.
Are these the top 5 buttons?:
1 Clear history
2 Reset Top Sites
3 Remove all webpage preview images
4 Empty the cache
5 Clear the Downloads window
I got this list from Safari Help>Resetting Safari. I'm using Safari 4.1, but I noticed that this help page referred to Safari 5 in the 'Reset Top Sites' explanation: "Reset Top Sites: … Top Sites page reverts to showing the webpage previews displayed when you first installed Safari 5."
As for the rest:
2 Reset Top Sites—I’ve never made use of this
3 Remove all webpage preview images—not familiar or I don’t recognize what it is.
4 Empty the cache—Fine with that
5 Clear the Downloads—window Fine with that
I’m letting you know about these details before I proceed with your instructions.
Thanks for responding,
Rafael
PS Since I'm asking about Bookmarks here, I've been meaning to find out something about my Safari Bookmarks.html that is exported, then backed up to one of my external HDs. If Safari or my computer crashes, and I re-install Safari, then import those bookmarks, are they re-created to look just as they do now in 'Show All Bookmarks'?
I have some old bookmarks (or 'Favorites' I think they were called) that, when imported (in an html format?), appeared as a long list, rather than as a neatly tiered record of folders and files.

Safari freezes when rotated

If I'm in portrait mode in Safari and I rotate my iphone 4 to landscape mode, Safari will occasionally freeze (about one time out of 5). To restore it, I have to quit Safari, then tap the icon to rerun it. Usually it won't start back up on the first retry - It boots to the Safari screen, but it's blank and is frozen. I knock it down and try again and usually on the second or third try it runs OK again
This freeze occurs intermittently and I can't recreate it. It started a few weeks ago. I thought that installation of 4.3 would help, but it's still there.
I'm assuming that since it has persisted through a firmware change (upgrade to 4.3), it's not going to be helped by a restore, but perhaps I'm wrong. If Safari wasn't a built in program, I'd uninstall and reinstall a fresh copy - any way to do that? Since it glitches when rotated, I also wonder if it's somehow hardware related to that rotation sensor.
Any thoughts would be appreciated. - Frank

I did take it into the Genius bar. They checked it and said they could see numerous Safari freezes - I guess they have a way to read activity and errors. They had no answers for why it would freeze, but gave me a new (refurbished, I'm sure) phone.
So I'll restore and hope the problem doesn't come back in through the software restore.......

Safari 3 backspace goes back space does to bottom of the page

when im in a text input box such as google search and i say for example make a mistake, but when i hit delete (backspace) to delete the mistake it goes back like when you hit the back button in the browser. can someone please help me fix this. also when i hit the spacebar it sometimes goes to the bottom on the page. I would be very grateful if anyone could help me.
These things only happen on certain pages, right now while im typing this its not happening, but on google, certain forums, it happens

Hi,
When I hit the space bar on any webpage it jumps to the bottom of the page
Just to be clear, are you editing text on a page, or just viewing the page?
If just viewing the page, is it going to the very last page in a multipage site, or down 1 page at a time. One page at a time is expected behaviour. Most browsers do this.
If you are editing text, check that you don't have some incompatible Safari helper applications installed. Go to these 2 locations and move anything present in them onto your Desktop to deactivate them:
/Users/YourUsername/Library/Input Managers/
/Library/Input Managers/
Restart Safari to pick up the change. If it works now, you can try moving the items back one by one until you find the culprit.

Safari freezes when I click the Share button or when I try to right-click on the URL to copy/paste

The Address bar and Share functions in Safari cause it to crash/freeze when I try to share or copy/paste the URL. Any ideas/solutions?

Might be an incompatible Safari extension or plug-in causing the freeze ...
Try troubleshooting extensions and third party plug-ins.
From your Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Extensions tab. Turn that off if there are any installed. Quit and relaunch Safari to test. If that helped, turn extensions back on then uninstall one a time to test.
If it's not an extensions issue, try troubleshooting third party plug-ins.
Back to Safari > Preferences. This time select the Security tab. Deselect: Allow all other plug-ins. Quit and relaunch Safari to test.
If that made a difference, instructions for troubleshooting plugins here.
